| Ms. Pre for The House of Thailand November 2, 2013 |
Time Passages. After 600 years, the Thai "wei" hasn't changed at all.
On the left is a stone relief that's about 600 years old. On the right is one of our Siamese models, Ms. Prae. The "wei(s)" are almost identical.
Whenever I use non-Thai models, they just can't get the "wei" right. But the Thai models do it perfectly. And it's such a simple gesture that you'd think anyone could do it authentically. It just goes to show that you can't fake culture. (or can you?) - House of Thailand 11.2.13
